The aim of this paper is to present an LPV (Linear Paramater Varying) approach for the design of a functional filter for bilinear systems with a disturbance attenuation specification. The unbiasedness requirement on the observation error is guaranteed by the solution of Sylvester equations obtained by parametrizing the filter gain matrix. This parametrization leads to a non convex optimization ...

The well-known Richards’ Theorem of the continuous-time filter theory is reformulated in the digital domain in a convenient manner, leading to a simple derivation of cascaded lattice digital filter structures, realizing lossless bounded transfer functions. The theorem is also extended to the matrix case, leading to a derivation of m-input p-output cascaded lattice filter structures with lossles...

This paper introduces matrix filters as a tool for localization and detection problems in passive sonar. The outputs of an array of sensors, at some given frequency, can be represented by a vector of complex numbers. A linear filtering operation on the sensor outputs can be expressed as the multiplication of a matrix (called a matrix filter) times this vector. The purpose of a matrix filter is ...

In this paper, we develop a method to construct non-redundant directional wavelet filter banks. Our method uses a special class of filters called Neville filters and can construct non-redundant wavelet filter banks in any dimension for any dilation matrix. The resulting filter banks have directional analysis highpass filters, thus can be used in extracting directional contents in multi-D signal...

PURPOSE It has recently been reported that intravenous recombinant tissue plasminogen activator improves the clinical outcome after acute stroke. Computed tomography (CT) is the standard imaging method used to determine the indication for thrombolysis. However, detection of early ischemic change often results in an increase in local radiation exposure. Therefore, the effects of decreased matrix...
